Bases: object

A class for interacting with the Gen3 Index services.

Parameters:

Add new version for the document associated to the provided uuid

Since data content is immutable, when you want to change the size or hash, a new index document with a new uuid needs to be created as its new version. That uuid is returned in the did field of the response. The old index document is not deleted.

Parameters:

• guid – (string): record id

• hashes (dict) – {hash type: hash value,} eg hashes={'md5': ab167e49d25b488939b1ede42752458b'}

• size (int) – file size metadata associated with a given uuid

• did (str) – provide a UUID for the new indexd to be made

• urls (list) – list of URLs where you can download the UUID

• file_name (str) – name of the file associated with a given UUID

• metadata (dict) – additional key value metadata for this entry

• acl (list) – access control list

• urls_metadata (dict) – metadata attached to each url

• version (str) – entry version string

• authz (str) – RBAC string

• description (str) – optional description of the object

• content_created_date (datetime) – optional creation date and time of the content being indexed

• content_updated_date (datetime) – optional update date and time of the content being indexed

• body – json/dictionary format

• store. (- Metadata object that needs to be added to the) – Providing size and at least one hash is necessary and sufficient. Note: it is a good idea to add a version number
